    Quotes and Memes

    I actually watched it in real time. Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine, while not actively promoted, were made available in the state of Florida. When the gummint got wind that Florida was having success, particularly with Ivermectin, they quickly seized the supply with the brief and clearly...

    Why I take the Bible literally

    If I may humbly offer...history is written by the victor.

    It is not for us to question G!d's intent, but...

    It is not for us to question G!d's intent, or plans if you will. But to better understand what makes Him tick, I think He actually enjoys letting a genuine seeker sneak a peek behind the curtain from time to time. In other words, it is not my place to tell G!d He is wrong, that things should be...

    Evolution is Unscientific

    Yes, but I fail to understand how these relate to deliberate deception?

    Destruction of Libraries

    I think the internet has done more to kill libraries than censorship has.

    Absolute Truth

    In other words...it isn't what you believe, it is what you do with what you believe. I wonder where I've heard that before... ;)

    Absolute Truth

    OK, whereas I see absolute as penultimate, from which all derive and to which all point.

    Evolution is Unscientific

    The problem is there isn't any evidence of that, and quite the opposite. What studies do exist indicate higher order mental functions...rational thought is required for deliberate deception. I've seen no indication of such in other apes. I have seen a chimp hide "food" from others, knowing...

    Absolute Truth

    I hesitate, in part because while I do understand there are persons adept enough to glimpse and maybe even brush against the core of reality, to actually be engulfed by such would eliminate any return to this plane of existence. This is essentially an out of body experience, likewise astral...

    Absolute Truth

    I think your analogy is a pretty good one. What I've been trying to say all along is that shoes are not even required. We all can walk just fine without them, although we would have to learn not to walk on broken glass or through briar patches...and both of the churches, red *and* green shoes...

    Some random thoughts

    Well, MadJW ducked and dodged and left, and Amir has only danced around the subject. If you're interested, please do. I asked specifically of MadJW and he went into one of his rants, about "3 (or is it 4?) words" (*his words), before laying into me about being judgmental. There are 3 Greek...

    Absolute Truth

    If I'm following what you say here, we're saying the same thing in different words. Reality exists outside of each individual, "us." How each of us perceives that reality differs. I believe what you pointed to earlier is how/what each of us experiences, and thereby shapes our perception...but...

    Injustice, Anger and Forgiveness.

    I have trust and faith that justice will be served in the end. Because I live my life expecting I will face justice in the end.

    Injustice, Anger and Forgiveness.

    "Just" is a legal term, from which we get the word Justice. Just is recompense by authority, whether mom and dad, or the gummint. Fair, in my mind, is essentially the same as "equal" or "identical," both of which are impossible ideals that can never be attained. Life ain't fair because life...

    Evolution is Unscientific

    Stephen J Gould posited "Non-Overlapping Magisteria" for science and religion. Science asks how? Religion asks why? -emphasis mine, from the wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-overlapping_magisteria

    Yes, but there's a long way to go yet as well.
